    Lovely garden setting, with seating outside and inside an old colonial bungalow. Service is prompt and have had many coffee mornings there and lovely meals. Try it.

    The foods they present as Italian but nothing is not even close to that. Pizza uses the cheapest cheese and prosciutto, and tastes like plastic and lasagna have no al forno and bechamel fitted. But especially the Romeo owner lady is non adequate for service... The atmosphere was good but with a country music in an Italian restaurant... Jesus... Just for the proof, and people from Rome are...Romeo's. instead of fighting the truth, hire a real chef and have better attitude to common sense critique .

    The House of Malindi (Karen Blixen) offers one of the best meals I’ve ever had definitely worth it when visiting Malindi. Great food and a lovely atmosphere make it a must-visit!

    One of the best restaurants in Malindi, everything was good, the place is very beautiful for date with your partner. Pizza, pasta a lot of kinds and a lot of different Italian food that I even don't know those names but I believe it could be interesting experience to try this food. About prices, they are hi, but like in half of the restorants in Malindi, it's not most expensive, but at least here it worst. If you don't have a lot just take 1-20pizza here, some of them less than 1k (2025).
